If your body has areas of excessive fatty tissue, or you want to improve the overall shape of your body, then you might want to consider liposuction cosmetic surgery.
So, who exactly is a good candidate for liposuction cosmetic surgery? Well, you are, if any of the following apply to you...
1) You have developed excess fat around your stomach, hips, buttocks, thighs, arms, neck or back. 2) You have areas of fatty deposits that aren't in proportion with the remainder of your body, and that don't go away even after exercise and diet. This is also known as diet resistant fat. 3) Your fatty tissues are not around areas where you have excess, sagging skin - skin elasticity being important since liposuction only removes fat and not skin.
Your plastic surgeon will evaluate you to make sure that you are a good candidate for liposuction. He or she may ask you to look in the mirror and point out the areas that you want to be improved. Some pictures will be taken, and these photos will be used help your surgeon to determine what you expect, and to let you know what can actually be achieved.
You will want to make note of prior surgeries, medical conditions you have now, or that you have had before, along with any medications and allergies. Be sure to provide complete information, since some conditions can affect your eligibility for surgery.
So, should be eligible, and have found a surgeon that you are happy with, then the next step is to familiarize yourself with how liposuction cosmetic surgery actually works. Basically, what happens is that a tube, or canula, is inserted into the areas of your body where fat has deposited itself, so that a pump can be used to create a vacuum that allows the fatty tissues to literally be sucked out of you. There are some slight variations to this method though, which may be used depending on your particular circumstances, and the specific expertise of the surgeon that you have chosen.
You do not need to overly concern yourself with the various different methods of liposuction though, as your surgeon will, having advised you and listened to your feedback, make the final decision. They will have performed liposuction many times before, so you can rest assured that they will know exactly what will be right for you.
Once the surgery has been performed, which generally takes a few hours at most, you will need to rest and recuperate for a period of about ten days. There are generally no complications with the procedure, as it is one of the most common ones that plastic surgeons perform, and so no follow up operations should be necessary.
The results of your liposuction usually last for a long period of time, however, the healing process can be gradual, so it may take several months for you to notice the full effects of your surgery. Some slight scaring may initially be visible but, over the course of a few months, this will fade to the extent that is barely visible. - 30516
